QWERTY-packing JioPhone 2 unveiled, it and the Nokia 8110 4G are getting WhatsApp

05 July 2018
The JioPhone 2 costs just under $45. It runs KaiOS and so will be getting official Google apps soon. It already has Facebook and Twitter apps.

Why can't the west release a QWERTY KaiOS with a reasonable camera (8MP?)

Maybe some shock/water/dust proofing, for outdoors types?

T9 is horrible, and a lot of folks want burner phones, or to declutter their digital lives from too much social media and apps. KiaOS has all the major apps. Literally all it needs is navigation, and it will do most of what a smartphone does.

            Anonymous, 05 Jul 2018Feature phone with top specs like they used to have until 2... moreBut according to me, all the mobile phones made in 2010 to 2012 were the best handsets.

              It's a nice price. Would love to see this available worldwide.
              Nokia's golden days of QWERTY are long over, sadly.

                    A small correction :

                    By the way, if you have the original Jio, you can swap it for a JioPhone 2 for INR 500 ($7/€6).

                    This is not correct . if you have any feature phone you can it as an exchange for original jio phone for 500, Not the jio phone 2 .
